More Insights
Built in 1974 (51 years old).
Condition: The property was built in 1974, making it 50 years old. While the listing states it has been 'meticulously maintained' and visible areas like the living room and bedrooms show fresh paint and well-kept flooring (hardwood and carpet), there are no clear images of the bathrooms, and only a partial view of the kitchen. The kitchen description mentions 'custom cabinetry,' which implies an update, but without visual evidence, it's difficult to assess its modernity; the glimpse available suggests light wood cabinets which can be dated. Given the age, major systems are likely older, even if functional. This aligns with the 'Fair' criteria for a property built over 20 years ago, maintained through regular upkeep, where major components are functional but may show signs of being outdated.
